Pittsburgh—The August steel scrap buy is wrapping up in the US with the Southern and East Coast regions showing strength, and Midwest market sentiment firming in late trading. Most sources reported the bulk of trading in the Midwest taking place down $20/lt on prime grades from July pricing and sideways on obsolete grades after the Detroit region opened trading on Aug. 4. Later in trading, however, prices were heard to begin firming on all grades, particularly on cuts.
